Greddy Turbo Build Thread

Hey Rx8club! I've been one of the people just roaming around looking through all the info rx8club has presented so i dont really post much. I decided to finally post my build thread just cause lol. First off, I bought a used Greddy turbo kit which was incomplete in Aug of 2013 I believe. To be honest I didnt know much other than it was a great deal for turbo kit. So after months of piecing it together and doing research, I decided to install it in April of 2014. Its been about a year now, and I've been happily driving my boosted 8 around =) So here it is-

Parts List:
Greddy Turbo
Greddy ic piping
Greddy ic (used type 31 for a different car-my kit didnt come with one)
AEM Tru-boost
Prosport oil temp, oil pressure, water temp gauges
prosport oil sandwich plate connected to turbo oil feed line w/ .65 oil restrictor and sensors
racing water temp adapter
AEM intake mod
cat-less single resonator pipe

For the first couple of months I was running the kit with a Cobb Ap tuned by Lucky7. Recently a few weeks back, I upgraded to the adaptronics ECU as well as adding an innovate MTX-L wideband. Now the car is tuned by Tri-point Engineering.

Well thats about it for this build thanks for looking.
PS. I'm going to be leaving this setup and planning to go REW. If things go right hopefully I will be able too =)

Great job . Well done on a successful install .

Interested to hear your thoughts on the differences in drive-ability between Cobb and Adaptronics ...

IIRC, this kit is currently listed in the FS forum.
